Canonical page: https://www.tecobi.com/integrations/tradepending/
Primary topic: TradePending integration

Trade intent is one of the strongest signals a shopper can give. TECOBI can keep TradePending valuation context attached to the customer conversation so teams do not lose the appraisal thread.

## What TECOBI supports
- TradePending select and report endpoint support.
- VIN and plate lookup paths for valuation context.
- Trade-in progress attached to lead records.
- Follow-up timing informed by trade activity.

## Dealership workflow
### Trade-in activity should inform the follow-up.
A shopper who starts a valuation has a different intent signal than a generic lead. TECOBI helps preserve that context.

### VIN and plate lookup can reduce friction.
TradePending endpoints can support valuation context before saving trade-in details back onto the lead.

### Report links and status belong near the conversation.
Reps can keep texting, scheduling, and managing the lead while trade context remains visible.
